Loura L.

Private tutor in Kettering, OH

Education

Bachelor of Arts summa cum laude, English with Professional Writing Emphasis; New York Institute of Technology (Old Westbury, NY), 3/10 Associate of Arts with Honors, Liberal Arts; Sinclair Community College (Dayton, OH), 6/07 Majored in Photojournalism, GPA 3.375; Ohio University (Athens, OH), 2001-2002 Graduated with Honors; Beavercreek High School (Beavercreek, OH), 6/01

Experience

* I have tutored students K-12 from public, private, and homeschools in the Dayton area for 7 years in English, reading, writing, general math and early Algebra, study skills, test prep, organization, and much more with great success! Many of my students had learning disabilitie, including: ADD/ADHD, OCD, Tourettes, Dyslexia, IEPs, and others. * I have a casual, laid-back, holistic approach to teaching, and customize one-on-one sessions for every student. My assessments are not formal tests, as I believe these to be generally unreliable. * I have found that both students and tutors perform best when limited to 30-60 minute sessions (depending on the age and learning abilities of the student), 1-2 times per week. I prefer in-home, in-person tutoring sessions, but am now available for online sessions, due to Covid-19. * I also offer the following tutor-related services: Small group study hall sessions for students on select afternoons, especially during breaks; parent-planning consultations to be held once a month or once a quarter, depending on preference, to help parents craft a learning plan for/with their student (Older students are welcome to these longer sessions, at the discretion of parents); small group homeschool/extracurricular classes.

Hobbies

I am a curious, life-long learner and animal lover with a wide variety of interests including entrepreneurship, the environment, and political advocacy. I am a published writer of several short educational works, with more in progress. Those can be viewed here: I love photography, music, beading/jewelry, design, nature, singing, acting, and gardening. I have 3 children, 1 dog, and hopefully soon, a kitty. My favorite subjects are history and literature, areas I am excited to be offering small classes in! https://mydearwatsontutoring.wordpress.com/
